UFC on FUEL TV 3 takes place May 15 at Patriot Center in Fairfax, Va. The event’s main card airs live on FUEL TV while preliminary-card fights are expected to stream on Facebook.

Curran vs. Eduardo likely will be part of the prelims stream.

Curran recently returned to the UFC for the first time since UFC 46. Following stints with organizations such as PRIDE, the WEC and Strikeforce, the 34-year-old Curran met Scott Jorgensen at UFC 137 and suffered a unanimous-decision loss. Prior to the defeat, the Brazilian jiu-jitsu black was on a 4-1 run. “Big Frog” has registered decisions in his past three wins, but 19 of his first 30 came via submission.

Eduardo, a 16-year pro, made his long-awaited UFC debut at UFC 134 in his native Brazil, but he suffered a unanimous-decision defeat to Raphael Assuncao. The loss snapped the 32-year-old Nova Uniao fighter’s 11-fight win streak, which went back to 2008 and included eight stoppage victories.
